Oil Question
Ed Wojciechowski 6 April 2005 16:36:38
	I've got a '96 ZJ with 155k on it, I know the owners manual calls for a certain type of oil, but I was wondering what the groups thoughts were on different types of oil for that high of mileage.

	Here's a thought. Anyboy used synthetic oil and what do you think of it? I've just overhauled a motor but didn't go into the case, just new pistons and cylinders. I seem to remember you couldn't use synthetic oil straight out of the gate. Someone please refresh my memory and give me the benifit of your experience. Should I break it in with something else first? Or should I even consider synthetics? Thanks, <>< TC

	I ran across an interesting article on motor oil on a non-vw website a while back. It's very informative. I don't think it answers the "should I use synthetic oil in my aircooled VW" question but has some good information anyway. http://www.boss302.com/oil.htm -->>>Mike '64 sunroof Beetle '55 semaphore Beetle

	dont use synthetic oil in new/rebuilt aircooled vw engine-- rings will never seat breakin with dino oil then after 500 miles change out to synthetic if you really want syn. type oil (porsche uses syn. oil-i dont)

	Thanks Bill. Do you use synthetic in your VW? Do you notice any difference in cooling ability? -->>>Mike '64 sunroof Beetle '55 semaphore Beetle

	Our Cherokee has 310K km on it and we just use regular 10W30. It uses about a liter between changes.

	Like Mike my 93 XJ has high miles on it (372k km's) I just use regular old 10w30 dino oil, it uses about a half litre of oil between changes (over due by about 700 km's right now). I change the filter every change. When it was leaking oil from the filter adaptor and valve cover I would use the cheap industrial 10w30 stuff. Now that the leaks are gone I'm back to using Pennzoil, quackerstate, valvoline what ever is on sale. I had thought of using that high mileage stuff but a co-worker who used said it was crap, its one of those things that once you start using it you better keep using it, since it is almost 2x the amount of regular oil I decided not to use it.

	I use 10-40 Quaker state on my 120k engine. It's only run in 60 degree F temps and above. Only reason to use the heavier oil is to maintain reasonable oil pressure at idle. You would like 20 psi, 10 psi at idle is starting to be worrysome.

	I'm the odd ball. In my 96 xj with 142k miles I use Shell Rotella synthetic 5-40 (blue bottle, Wallmart $12.88 per gallon). Lots of oil pressure and no oil usage.
